The Amber Valley area offers many opportunities for walkers,
horse riders and cyclists of all abilities to get out and
about. There's a wide variety of way-marked routes that
include spectacular scenery, quaint villages and fascinating local
history.

The Amber Valley Routeways is a series of circular walks and
rides along public footpaths and bridleways throughout the Amber
Valley. A self guided leaflet accompanies each route giving
directions and interesting snippets of information along the
way. They can be downloaded from the list below, along with
other local interest walks.

There are many good guide books that can be purchased from local
outlets. A number of these are available from the Derwent Valley
Visitor Centre, Strutt' North Mill, Belper.

Riding in Amber Valley

Please note that the Council update these leaflets on a periodic
rolling basis and that some landmark information may have
changed. The footpaths should remain in place and be
signposted and be clearly marked on the Ordnance Survey
maps. Please report problems you may find so that these can be
investigated to tourism@ambervalley.gov.uk
